Thinking of Tim still makes me smile. The great memories from the days at St. Albans are still vivid. God Bless.

I worked with Tim during the Lamm administration and we became instant friends. We shared many great memories when our kids were young. But the strength, grace and smile I saw these last couple years as he battled cancer will be with me forever.

I am so very sorry to learn just now of Tim's death. Tim was my good buddy in college and I cherish my memories: his twinkly eyes, raucous laugh and brimming smile. He was a delight to be with, fun at all times, a true and loyal friend, a caring heart. I extend my condolences to his sweet family for this huge loss.

I am deeply saddened to have learned of Tim's death. While it had been some time since I had seen him, his mind and spirit were so vibrant, the glint in his eye so bright, and his intellect so keen, that his image is still crystal clear in my mind. My condolences to his family and friends.

I am truly saddened by the news of Tim's passing. I met Tim in Washington, DC in the early 1980s when he attended a "Wirth Washington Seminar." Tim was politically savvy, incredibly smart and energetic, and a joy to know. I offer my heartfelt condolences to the family.

I was a "floater" into Tim's roommate group as a junior at Harvard. He was definitely one of the brightest guy's there and source of great conversation. I am very sorry to hear of his passing. I have pictures of him as a Ninja!

Tim was a wonderful classmate during our years at St. Albans in D.C. He was the brightest kid in the class but never was arrogant or pretentious. He was never lost for words and always made you smile.

Having known Tim since high school, I was always impressed with his energy, enthusiasm for life and positive outlook. My daughters and I send our condolences to Paula, Granger and Ellie, and we pray for peace and healing for you all.

I was shocked and saddened to hear of Tim's passing. He was a superb lawyer and a wonderful human being. I will miss him.
